Maybe you need a more complex plan coach.

am I right that there's seems to have not been any response to Marchand either deliberately or recklessly injuring Lilly? kinda pathetic if so.

Reaves yelled at him a bit from the bench as Lilly was being carted off.
But yeah, absolutely nothing aside from that.

The only thing I saw was Reaves yapping at him from the bench. Not just pathetic, fucking pathetic doesn't even cover it.

I mean if we're going to subscribe to 'the code', as we're told we must, then what the fuck Leafers. what the fuck.

You have to have a backbone. Not that jumping Marchand would have changed the outcome of the game, but its just the attitude that you won't be fucked with. Winning teams aren't pussies. MacKinnon is a psycho that doesn't take shit. Stamkos and Kucherov are psychos that don't take shit. Crosby and Stone get into fights in the preseason.
Its just a disappointing, disengaged response from a team you expect to be leaving everything on the table in June. You don't care at all that Lilly was taken out? Do you have any fight in you?

And I do think the coach has some impact on that mentality. Sheldon eats shit left and right. From his players. From the refs. Hell his childhood abusers brother in law makes shitty calls against his team every game and he literally thanked him for being nice to him.

to be fair, Klinger did give it back to him.

Dead ass on.
I'm sick of it. I really thought this new bunch would at least attempt to change that.

Yeah he did somewhat, not enough though. Have to say I was surprised that he did.
I really don't know much about him, didn't think he was much for rough stuff though so that surprised me.

I'd assume most (>50%) of teams in the league would have responded with something after that Marchand bullshit, maybe not right in the moment but certainly before the end of the game. Reaves definitely had shifts on the ice vs. Marchand after the injury. If there is payback on Marchand I hope it's something equally greasy like the play on Lilly, not some stupid staged fight. The difference being next time they'll call the major.
One of the best players you can have on your team in the current NHL is the super-rat. Even just an above average rat. It would be difficult in TO with the spotlight of resentment from the rest of the league constantly on them, but a true rat could overcome it.

You don’t need to kill the guy, but I’ve seen more intense responses to guys getting to close to the other teams goalie in beer league than whatever the fuck the leafs did after one of their dmen broke an ankle on an extremely dirty play by an extremely dirty player.
